No this isn′t what I wanted Never thought it′d come this far Thinkin′ back to where we started And how we lost all that we are We were young and times were easy But I could see it′s not the same Standing here but you don′t see me Give it all for that to change I don′t want to lose her Don′t want to let her go
Standing out in the rain Need to know if it′s over Cause I would leave you alone I′m flooded with all this pain Knowing that I′ll never hold her Like I did before the storm Yeah-ah-ah Before the storm
With every stike of lightning Comes a memory that lasts Not a word is left unspoken As the thunder starts to crash Maybe I should give up
Standing out in the rain Need to know if it′s over Cause I would leave you alone I′m flooded with all this pain Knowing that I′ll never hold her Like I did before the storm
I′m trying to keep the lights from going out And the clouds from ripping out my broken heart They always say a heart is not a home Without the one who gets you through the storm
Standing out in the rain Knowing that it′s really over Please don′t leave me alone I′m flooded with all this pain Knowing that I′ll never hold ya Like I did before the storm Yeah Like I did before the storm
Sat outside my front window This story′s going somewhere He′s well hung and I am hanging up Well theres a song on the radio that says Let′s get this party started, let′s get this party started What you do on you own time′s just fine My imagination′s much worse than I ever wanted to know And what meant the world implodeded... inflated then demoted all my oxygen to product gas and suffocated my last chance You said between your smiles and regrets Dont say it′s over Dead and gone calm before the storm Set it off, and the sun burnt out tonight Reception less than warm Set it off and the sun burnt out tonight The next time the phone can wring my neck it gets no answer And of the time that I′ve spent telling it my roots I′m shaking in my boots And still it looks at me like an old friend I′ve betrayed The darkside of the doormat is the one your shoes have frayed The sun burnt out tonight
